Keep Picking - Dan Mooney - Portland, Oregon

[C]Cigarettes were a quarter then, bobby socks and jeans were in, Elvis sang

the songs that we loved [Dm7]so, [G]and the [Dm7]most important [G]thing to

us, [Dm7]was keeping gas in [G]my old truck, [Dm7]so I could take us [G]to

the drive in [C]show.

[C]Then graduation finally came, Uncle Sam called me away, you married

someone else while I was [Dm7]gone, [G]but I've [Dm7]kept your letter [G]all

these years, [Dm7]and I can't help but [G]shed a tear, when I [Dm7]read the

words you [G]wrote me years

[C]ago.

Chorus

[C]Baby I'm [Bb]yours, [F]I'll love you always, I'm gonna [Bb]stand by you

[F]until the end of [C]time, remember [Bb]all of the good things [F]that we

shared to[C]gether, signed, love [Bb]Betty, [F]nineteen fifty [C]nine.

[C]I never will forget the day, when you and I went all the way, I was the

first for you, and you for [Dm7]me, [G]I've still [Dm7]got the truck that

[G]we loved in, it [Dm7]takes me back there [G]now and then, [Dm7]back to

fifty [g]nine in my memo[C]ry.

Repeat Chorus
